It is said to be the ´hometown´ of the Monkey King, the hero of the novel. Known as the ´City of Fantasy and Romance´, Lianyungang is a pearl in the center of China´s long coastal region.

• Located in the northeast part of Jiangsu Province, Lianyungang faces to Korean Peninsula and Japan to the east over the Huanghai Sea (Yellow Sea), neighboring Xuzhou City to the west, and Shandong Province to the north. Currently, the city governs three districts (Xinpu, Lianyun and Haizhou) and four counties (Ganyu, Donghai, Guanyun and Guannan). The city´s government is located in the Xinpu District, which is also the economic, cultural and tourism center of Lianyungang. The national-level Lianyungang Economic and Technological Development Zone located in the city´s east part is also one of the local highlights from 1980´s. Now, it has absorbed a great number of investors from over 35 countries and regions.

• Known for its pleasant climate and with a variety of natural scenery, Lianyungang is a great place for tourism all year round. In the spring, the flowers are in full bloom all over the mountains around the city. In summer, the sunny beach, with lots of activities and festivals, is the best place for a holiday. Autumn is the best time for hiking in the mountains, and in winter the natural hot springs completely dispel the cold.
